Swanson Bark & Wood
ABOUT SWANSON BARK
Quality, sustainability and employees… not necessarily in that order
Since 1928 Swanson Bark and Wood Products (then known as Swanson Fuels) has shipped high quality sustainable wood products in the United States and abroad. The company’s biggest transformation came in 1994 when John Leber took the lead as president of Swanson and grew the company from 20 employees to over 100, while expanding the product lines to include mulch, custom soil blends, rock, biomass and much more. In 2021 Swanson Bark was purchased by Denali. Swanson Bark was a key acquisition for Denali adding to its portfolio of over 20+ compost, mulch and soil locations around the United States.

Our “open door” policy serves to empower every Swanson employee, no matter their job title, to call attention to potentially hazardous behaviors or situations and to offer solutions that will mitigate risk and further refine our safety procedures.
